New PCs are more likely to come bundled with Bluetooth peripherals thanks to
the release of some new software.
Bluetooth keyboards and mice are usually sold separately from PCs because,
without a tricky tweak to the Bios code used to boot the machine, they function
only after the operating system loads the relevant code.
This means users need a spare wired mouse and keyboard to control the PC
during boot-up or if the operating system code is corrupted in some way.

Radio has released software called Blueice which automates the Bios
configuration and device setup of peripherals using its Bluecore4-Ext modules.
David McCall, vice-president of CSR's PC strategic business unit, said the
software makes a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse as simple and straightforward to
use as wired products.
